| BIO
Antoniette Costa is a singer-songwriter originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. A recent graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, where she majored in English and Italian, Antoniette records and rehearses in Philly. She writes all of her music and lyrics. She released her debut CD “Breakthru” in her sophomore year at Cornell University. The album was well received and ranked 2 on Amazon’s Early Adopter Indie Music Chart and 69 on the Early Adopter All Music Chart. While attending Cornell University, Antoniette performed locally in Ithaca as a lead singer in the band LR9. She sang in the Cornell’s How Excellent Gospel Choir. Antoniette's highlight performance remains singing with the choir for Yolanda King, the daughter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who had spoke in Cornell’s Sage Chapel over 40 years earlier. After transferring to UPenn, Antoniette began working on her new material. In the process, she has collaborated with Dice Raw rapper/A&R, producers Khari "Ferrari" Mateen, John-John and Richard Nichols, executive producer/manager of "The Roots," singer-songwriters Mercedes Martinez of the Jazzyfatnastees and Nikki Jean and musicians/producers James Poyser, Randy Bowland and Adam Blackstone. The past two summers Antoniette interned in NYC in the Marketing Departments for Columbia Records and MTV. She currently works at MTV. Antoniette will begin performing her new songs in New York City and Philly soon.
